In Sect. 5.2 Model # 2 of the published article, Eq. (60) is written as

$$\begin{aligned} ds^{2}=-dt^{2}+dR^{2}+\alpha R^{2}d\varOmega ^{2}. \end{aligned}$$

(1)

However, the last term is not correct. Since this model has a topological defect, instead of (60), the proper line element should be written as follows

$$\begin{aligned} ds^{2}=-dt^{2}+dR^{2}+\left( 1-\alpha \right) R^{2}d\varOmega ^{2}. \end{aligned}$$

(2)

Now, it is clear that for $\alpha <0$ there is a solid angle excess, whilst for $0<\alpha <1$ there is a solid angle deficit, as was explained along the manuscript.
